英国游客在威尼斯被宰天价午餐花掉近500欧

In a letter to Luigi Brugnaro, the mayor of the World Heritage city, Mr Tang, 40, wrote: “I do not expect there will be any refund, but I wanted to draw your attention (to) the behaviour of this business, (which) will ruin the reputation of Venice. It is disgraceful and indeed the shame of Venice.”

在给威尼斯市长布鲁加洛的信中，40岁的唐先生写道：“我没打算要回退款，但我想引起您对于这件事的重视，这会损害威尼斯的名声。这种行为太不光彩了，这是威尼斯的耻辱。”

The bill was presented to the Tangs after they sat down to a meal of 20 fresh oysters, spaghetti with squid ink, grilled fish and crayfish.

他们那那一餐吃了20只新鲜牡蛎、墨鱼意大利面、烤鱼和龙虾。之后服务员拿来了账单。

Mr Tang told The Telegraph: "I didn't want to start a big argument because we had a plane to catch. Also, my parents are elderly and my father is on medication, so I didn't want to make a scene and upset them.

唐先生告诉《每日电讯报》说：“我当时并不想大吵大闹，因为我们还要赶飞机，并且我的父母上了年纪，我父亲还在服药，我不想吵闹，搞得他们不愉快。”

"When I got home I did some research on this restaurant and realised that we were by no means the only ones to be treated like this. There were a lot of complaints from Japanese and Korean tourists - the restaurant seems to particularly target Asian visitors, because the language barrier means it is hard for them to complain.
